Shame the Wrexham 1 and Rhyl 11 are not going to call at the Bus station

I do agree in principle about the 1, but I think it's already confusing enough having two services called 1 going to completely different places stopping at the bus station.

Stagecoach depot. That is all. Otherwise Rail Station. That is it.

I believe Delamere Street will retain it's 3 stops.

Delamere Street is no good though when the right turn into Delamere Street has been blocked off. That means a bus has to go round the fountains just to get into stand. 5 minute layover or 5 mins late trying to find layover.

You can wait at the bus station stand for 5 minute layovers.
Depends what your time frame of a 'layover' is considered as, I was more refering to longer layover periods of exceeding 15 minutes.

Longer.... Well No one knows.

adding a total of 20seconds if not less if all the lights are green to the journey time, 2 minutes max if otherwise...

2 minutes. Getting round the fountains can take longer than that. Plus getting off George Street etc.

The Chester traffic light management at the best of times can be bad to get through , i do think there will be further timetable revisions coming up.
